Iroquois’ Club of Chicago Listens to Secretary Lansing on Liberty Loan. Chicago, Oct. 22.—Declaring that the Liberty Loan affords a splendid opportunity for the removal of the family savings from the stocking to a safer place, Secretary Daniels in an address befere the Iroquois Club here today made a stirring appeal for the success of the second offering, “Money is plentiful in America, declared the sccretary. “The banks are overflowing with it; the stockinss are bulging out with it. That deposi- tory is not the safest. I would advi all who use that ancient depository to take every dollar out and put it in Liberty bonds. “I wish every dollar in America was on legs, so that it had to march up the street and ride on the street cars to get home. Then we could see the dollars and enlist them | in the selective draft. Under the law we have the right to do so, but the first Liberty loan was responded to so cheerfully and so fully that there was no necessity, and there will be no necessity now. “Just as truly as a republic can lay its hands on a young man and sen_d him to France in the trenches, so it can and will if necessary lay its hand on every dollar in America.” Sl T S AUTOMOBILES COLLIDE.
